A new piston option to set CR correctly!

I just ordered a complete set for a motor I am building. Gosh it was so easy to set the CR with these piston tops! Colin needs to try this !

Anything that "snaps in place" on a piston that reversing direction 60 times a second . . . is not going in my engine.

Do you have to install their special snap-together pistons before you get to enjoy the benefits of having stuff fly apart at high rpm because you were too lazy to set the deck height and combustion chamber volumes?

Hey thanks for thinking of me, but I have to get back to my Itinerant Air-Cooled Monogrammed Floor Mat manufacturing plant and wait for orders:

This has Robbie written all over it. Those snaps look suspiciously like LEGO.

Pshaw… We got a slap on the wrist for sustained temperatures over 165°f… That "snap together construction system" might make it one or two combustion events. :compress:

I'll take a floor mat in Bass-Boat Orange.

It was indeed. There were three more 'products' being sold around the internet last week but I can't find the others to post :(
